Cockroaches in Perth
Cockroaches are one of the most resilient and unpleasant pests found in Perth homes and businesses. These nocturnal insects thrive in warm, humid environments such as kitchens, bathrooms, and roof voids — anywhere food, moisture, and shelter are available. Once they establish a nesting site, they can multiply quickly and spread throughout the property.
Cockroaches are known carriers of bacteria and can contaminate food, utensils, and surfaces, posing potential health risks to families and staff. Common species in Perth include the German cockroach, American cockroach, and Australian cockroach — each requiring a specific treatment approach for effective control.
Signs of a Cockroach Infestation
You may have a cockroach problem if you notice:
Small, dark droppings resembling coffee grounds or pepper
Shed skins or egg cases (oothecae) near cracks and crevices
A strong, musty or oily odour, especially in confined areas
Cockroaches scurrying away when lights are turned on
Because they often hide in cracks, crevices, and hard-to-reach areas, professional pest control is the most reliable way to eliminate infestations and prevent them from returning.

FAQ’s
What types of cockroaches are common in Perth homes and businesses?
Common cockroach species found in Perth include German cockroaches, American cockroaches, and Australian cockroaches. These pests are attracted to warmth, moisture, and food sources, and are often found in kitchens, bathrooms, roof voids, and drains.
Are cockroaches a health risk?
Yes. Cockroaches can contaminate food and surfaces and are known to spread bacteria and allergens. Their presence may contribute to allergic reactions and asthma symptoms, particularly in homes, food premises, and workplaces.
Why do cockroaches keep coming back after treatment?
Cockroaches can be difficult to eliminate without addressing nesting areas, food sources, and breeding cycles. Professional cockroach control targets harbourage areas and breeding sites to help reduce ongoing activity and prevent re-infestation.
